What is the MicroTox® Face-Lift?

A non-surgical alternative to going under the knife, Dr Aamer Khan has perfected the technique using Azzalure®, a muscle balancing neuro toxin, to give the face a gentle and natural looking lift.

Often referred to as ‘baby Botox®’, Azzalure® is designed to enhance your natural features, not just wipe out lines and wrinkles. The procedure involves a series of tiny injections expertly placed to balance, lift and smooth the features resulting in a fresher, younger look that’s so natural it will keep people wondering how you look so good!

Recommended for: Relaxing the glabellar or frown lines between the brows, lifting the brows and corners of the mouth, smoothing the skin and tightening the jaw line, reducing the appearance of large, open pores, reducing oil production so the skin looks less oily, reducing acne breakouts.

Results: Very natural looking results; frown lines and crows feet are smoothed and the brow lifts slightly giving a less tired or angry appearance, the angle of the mouth tilts upwards to stop you looking sad, the jaw line is tightened, the skin looks refreshed and healthy, large pores are diminished and oily, problem skin will be greatly improved.

Recovery Time: No downtime. Some minimal bruising may be experienced following treatment but these can be covered up with mineral make-up and will fade quickly. A topical anaesthetic is applied 20 minutes before treatment so the procedure is painless. Occasionally temporary numbness or a mild headache may be experienced although muscle-relaxing injections are used to successfully treat migraine in some patients. In less than 1% of patients a temporary droop of the brow or eyelid may occur.

How Often: The effects can last from four to six months and then repeat injections will be needed to maintain the effects. After several treatments, the effects will begin to last longer and repeat treatments may only be required every six months. A follow up appointment two weeks after treatment allows for any minor top-ups.
